This year's list was missing one notable Hoosier. Dean White, who made his fortune in billboards and hotels, died last year. His net worth was estimated at $2.5 billion.

Forbes used a snapshot of stock prices and exchange rates on Feb. 17, 2017 to create the list. The financial magazine said the number of billionaires jumped from 1,810 last year to 2,043 this year. Total net worth rose by 18 percent to $7.67 trillion — a record high.

Bill Gates topped the list at $86 billion. He's joined by Warren Buffett, Jeff Bezos, Amancio Ortega and Mark Zuckerberg in the top five.
